Over the last month, we have seen why Free DC's organizing is more important than ever before. DC needs the permanent power to govern ourselves — and it's going to be up to us to build the power needed to win.

On Saturday, October 4, everyone who have completed Free DC's Campaign Orientation are invited to join us for a Community Fair. This day of connection and learning will be a chance for Free DC community members to connect across teams, get an update about the campaign's progress, deepen important skills, and map your work for the coming weeks and months.
